Natural Alkaloid Berberine Activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa MexXY-Mediated Aminoglycoside Resistance: In Silico and in Vitro Studies
5 Jul 2019
Abstract excerpt
The multidrug efflux system MexXY-OprM, inside the resistance-nodulation-division family, is a major determinant of aminoglycoside resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa . In the fight aimed to identify potential efflux pump inhibitors among natural compounds, the alkaloid berberine emerged as a putative inhibitor of MexXY-OprM. In this work, we elucidated its interaction with the extrusor protein MexY and assessed...
